In Luminar Neo, we can convert a negative to a color photo.

➡️ To do it, switch to: Tool → Curves


Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Click on the bottom-left point of the curve 🔄 Drag it to the very top

  2. Click on the top-right point of the curve 🔽 Drag it to the very bottom


✅ Done! The negative has been converted into a color image.


Converting Black-and-White to Color

⚠️ For now, there is no tool or practical workaround for converting a black-and-white photo into a color one using only Luminar Neo.

However, there is a chance that such an automatic tool will be introduced in the future.
